It’s been a while. I’ll let you all know everything that’s been going on with me another time. Today, I wanted to commemorate a big announcement in my writing life that I just made somewhere else. After eight and a half years, today I stepped down from writing at Random Curiosity. For those who only know me from my fiction writing, this news might not mean much. But for those who first met me as Stilts from Random Curiosity, this is...

Sometimes it’s discouraging being a writer. You see, I just wrote this big, lovely post where I set out to explain what I was about to do, and what that “Daily 1” in the title means. I think it was quite good, and honest, and all that jazz. Then I realized that I’d already written it. “Radical transparency. I’ll try.” Whoops. The crux of that post, and the other I half-wrote today, is that I wanted to be more open. I wanted to be vulnerable...

Shameless plug: if you’re on my email list, you’d already know everything I’m about to say. You’d also get a free prequel short story, once I finish writing the thing. So. Freelance Heroics is out in paperback! For those who have been anxiously awaiting the pretty paper product, your wait is over. It was over several days ago, you just might not have realized, see: email list. What else have we got? *shuffles papers* Ah, yes. Wage Slave Rebellion’s print...

My second novel, Freelance Heroics, is officially available today! Just the ebook for now—there was a small holdup with the print version, but I didn’t want to delay any more than I already have. Print should be available in 1-2 weeks. Please pick up the book and tell your friends. I’m super proud of it, and even though it was delayed for a few months while I moved across the country and accepted a couple of jobs—because there’s nothing a novelist needs more than less time...

I promise I’ll be back to blogging soon. What can I say? It’s the holidays. I’ve been swamped. For now, another bit of shameless self-promotion: I participated in a Mind Meld at sfsignal.com! For those who don’t know, SF Signal is a multiple-Hugo award winning fanzine & fancast site about sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fiction. I was asked to participate in one of their mind melds, where they take a bunch of people from the sci-fi & fantasy scene (authors featuring largely)...

Quick post today. I did an interview! You can find it over at The Little Red Reviewer now. A little background: I became acquainted with Andrea because her husband, Mike, is a reader and commenter over at RandomC. (Hi, Mike!) When I was getting ready to publish, I reached out to Andrea to see how the whole book blogging scene worked, and she was a huuuuge help. She laid everything out to me, so I can hopefully not look like a hopeless...

In addition to the release of Wage Slave Rebellion (available now on Amazon for $3.99), I have something else for you today—a free short story! Taking place one month after the events of Wage Slave Rebellion, Action Politics continues the story of Mazik, Gavi, and Raedren and their quest to become adventurers. And it’s available for free! Freeeee! (Unless you don’t want it to be. Keep reading.) I’m not going to talk about the plot, because I don’t want to risk spoiling the...

My debut novel, Wage Slave Rebellion, is officially available! You can buy it now as a DRM-free ebook from Amazon for $3.99.

Welcome to my new website. My previous site, StiltsOutLoud.com, served me well as a place to talk about writing and creativity in the run-up to publication, but with the release of my first novel imminent, it’s time to move onto something more focused on presenting my work. For fans of the old site, don’t worry—all posts and comments have been migrated, and I’ll be doing much of the same blogging here. I hope you’ll keep taking care of me. But for...
